The Daily Teaser — 1-11-2012

You would not believe — possibly wouldn’t believe — the amount of effort nine days worth of clips takes … !

Or possibly you would.

Either way, hopefully they’ll go down well!

Let’s get moving on, shall we?

That way, you can see my handiwork.

Yesterday’s Teaser saw a welcomed-back Debbi — her and her partner Rick finding themselves unharmed after Hurricane Sandy*ª — putting in her answers: and bagging a huge 12, out of an equally colossal 13.

As today’s the anniversary of the birth of painter, L. S. Lowry, I’ll leave you with this quote from the man, himself.

“You don't need brains to be a painter, just feelings.”

L. S. Lowry, 1 November 1887 – 23 February 1976

And the Brian and Michæl song about him …

* We’re not too bad, Debbi: I don’t think we’ve seen something like Sandy — in the south-east — since about 1987, so it’s not usually an issueº. (Saying that, flooding in Devon and Cornwall’s got worse over the past few years. It’s usually solved: if not quickly at times.)

º And usually, the only time you get delays on the trains — around here, at any rate — is if someone is depressed enough to jump from a bridge. Or if the power lines get pinched by metal-thieves. (About the only BIG thing — in Brentwood, anyway — is the parking. But I think you’d noticed, hadn’t you … ?)

ª Funny thing is, Debbi … ? The BBC were — indeed, still — are reporting on Sandy: and even had a brief one from Ocean City. I couldn’t HELP but wonder what a certain Ms McRæ would make of that … !
